3.
when an experiment began, the temperature of a substance was −5°c. during the experiment, the temperature rose exponentially. the scientist will sketch a graph of the situation, where x represents the time after the experiment began, and y represents the temperature of the substance at that time.
the scientist will only sketch the graph in the quadrant or quadrants for which it makes sense to.
in which quadrant or quadrants will the scientist sketch the graph?
a. quadrants i and ii only
b. quadrant i only
c. quadrants i, ii, iii, and iv
d. quadrants i and iv only
